That he was and it was a great game.....Beat up on the Redbirds 9-2.......Did you see the first game of the doubleheader today?.....Great defense on display by the Bucs.......Cutch with a great sliding catch and the Bucs turned a couple very impressive double plays to keep the game tied 1-1.....Then Presley's miracle deflection to win in it in extra innings......

2nd game of the doubleheader and the Bucs have an early 1-0 lead..........

The thread I started about the Pirates being the best team in baseball has disappeared so I guess this will be the Pirates talk thread....lol

23 games above .500 and the best record in baseball.......I can't believe there isn't more Pirates talk on this site.......But the Bucs took the first four games of a five game series vs the Redbirds.....Going for the sweep tomorrow night......Locke wasn't his usual sharp self tonight but the Pirates kept chipping away at Adam Wainwright to tie the game at 4.......The bullpen pitched five scoreless innings and heads up base running by Walker led to the go ahead run (nice piece of two out hitting by Russell Martin).......

Francisco Liriano and Russell Martin have been huge additions to this team and the Bucs are 17 wins away from 82 but that isn't the goal anymore.......The play-offs is the goal and the Pirates have a great shot to win the division.....Believe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have to remember the only reason this was a five game series was due to a rain out earlier in the season and they had to make it up or it would have been just a four game series.......Its hard for a to win a four game series let alone a five game series......I can't complain about the Bucs taking four out of five from the Cards......The Pirates are 7-3 vs the Cards this year........Just have to move on and beat the Rockies tonight.....You can't live and die with every game in a baseball season.....Every game isn't important like the NFL......
